Newark Hansard Trophy Gala 19/06/2010

We travelled to Newark on Saturday for Newarks annual Hansard Memorial Trophy Gala.
This is a gala with plenty of relays with the individual events being picked out of a hat just before the gala started.
Our swimmers did very well and were up against some stiff competition from Sherwood and Newark. We came 5th on the night just 13 points behind the 3rd place team Grantham.
Well done to all the swimmers.

Special mention to the boys 12U Medley Relay Team who on event 16 achieved our only 1st place of the night - Adam Gregory, Josh Housely, Ryan Pigott and Jack Brown.

P.bs on the night went to Josh Housley, Adam Gregory and Ben Barsby.

Thanks to everyone who attended - swimmers, helpers and spectators
